Brain Boost Analytics & Reporting FAQ

Our Brain Boost reports allow you to see information on learners' engagement with the Brain Boost feature as well as their performance on boosted courses and slides over time. 

  • See performance data & results by course and drill down for user and slide-level details
  • View top-level and individual user engagement statistics 

Functionality Overview

The dashboard has two tabs: Retention and Engagement.

Retention Tab

screen-capture (12)

The Retention tab contains three tables at the top level:

Lowest Retention Courses Displays the courses where learners are retaining the least information, measured by the current score of Brain Boost sessions
Highest Retention Courses Displays the courses where learners are retaining the most information, measured by the current score of Brain Boost sessions
Courses Displays performance and retention data for courses in Brain Boost. Click on a row to drill down into detailed User and User Group data for the course

Clicking on a course shows course-level data. One graph and four tables are available:

Retention over time graph Shows the average slide score for the course over a time series
Lowest Performing User Groups Displays the lowest-performing user groups measured by the current score of Brain Boost sessions
Highest Performing User Groups Displays the highest-performing user groups measured by the current score of Brain Boost sessions
Learner Displays performance and retention data per learner for learners who have activated Brain Boost for the course
User Groups Displays performance and retention data per user group for groups containing learners who have activated Brain Boost for the course

Clicking on a Learner drills down into Slide detail, and shows attempts on specific slides for that learner and course.

Clicking on a User group drills down into a Learner level view, containing a Retention over time graph, a Highest/Lowest performing Learners table, and a Learner table (as above).

 

Engagement Tab

screen-capture (13) (1)-1

The engagement tab shows five high-level data points (see table below for definitions): Avg. initial engagement, Activated, Started, Activated but not started, and Slide boosts.

Below the data points is a Users table, displaying a list of Learners who are enrolled in Boosted courses and whether that learner has activated Brain Boost(completed courseware for 1 or more slides) and started Brain Boost (answered at least one slide in a session).

 

Definitions

Retention

A measure of performance over time
Avg Score Current The average score across the most recent attempts
Avg Streak The average streak length across slides
Avg Score Initial The average score attained on the first attempt
Avg Change The delta between the Initial and Current average scores
Engagement A measure of learner's interactions with Brain Boost
Avg initial engagement The percentage of activated learners who have started a Brain Boost Session 
Activated The number of learners who have activated Brain Boost by completing 1 or more boosted slides.

Started

The number of learners who have attempted at least one Brain Boost session
Activated but not started The number of learners who have Brain Boost available but have yet to complete a session
Slide boosts The overall number of times slides have been "boosted", i.e. interacted with by learners in Brain Boost 
Current streak The number of times the learner has  most recently answered the question/slide correctly in a row

 

Q: How often do the reports update?

Brain Boost reports take up to 30 minutes to refresh.

 

Q: Can I export the reports?

Yes, the reports are exportable in a variety of formats

 

Q: What is a streak?

As a learner answers a slide correctly over consecutive attempts, their streak length for that slide increase, to a maximum of 5. Once they have a streak length of 5 on any slide they will no longer see that slide.
